Why remove EXIF data?

📍

Hidden GPS location

Every photo taken on a smartphone can contain your exact GPS coordinates down to a few meters.

📷

Camera model

The make, model and serial number of your camera or phone are often stored in metadata.

🕐

Exact date and time

The precise timestamp can reveal your habits, schedule, or alibi.

🔒

100% local

No file is ever sent to a server. All processing happens in your browser.

Surgical removal

For JPEG files, only metadata markers are removed. The compressed image data stays intact — no recompression.

📦

Batch processing

Drop dozens of images at once. Download them all in a single ZIP file.

Frequently asked questions

What is EXIF data?

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is metadata embedded in image files. It contains technical info (camera, exposure, ISO, focal length) and personal data (GPS coordinates, exact date/time, software used, author, copyright).

Why remove metadata before sharing a photo?

Because your geolocation, equipment and habits are sensitive data. When you post a photo on social media or send it via messaging, this metadata travels with the image and can be read by anyone.

Are my files sent to a server?

No. The tool uses native browser APIs (FileReader, ArrayBuffer, Blob URL). Not a single byte of your images leaves your device. The server only delivers the HTML page.

Does removing EXIF affect image quality?

For JPEG, absolutely not. The removal is surgical: only the APP1/APP13/COM segments are removed from the JPEG binary — the compressed image data is untouched. For PNG and WebP, a canvas redraw is used at maximum quality.

What is GPS-only mode?

This mode removes only the GPS sub-IFD in the EXIF structure, keeping technical shooting data (camera, exposure) while erasing your location. Useful for photographers who want to preserve exposure metadata.
